Abstract
As organizations search for more secure authentication methods for
user access, e-commerce. and other security applications, biometrics is
gaining increasing attention. But should your company use biometrics?
And, if so, which ones should you use and how do you choose them? There
is no one best biometric technology. Different applications require
different biometrics. To select the right biometric for your situation,
you will need to navigate through some complex vendor products and keep
an eye on future developments in technology and standards. Your options
have never been more diverse. After years of research and development,
vendors now have several products to offer. Some are relatively
immature, having only recently become commercially available, but even
these can substantially improve your company's information security
posture. We briefly describe some emerging biometric technologies to
help guide your decision making
